Opposition With Honor faction head Artur Vanetsyan denounced Nikol Pashinyan’s remarks made at the Q&A session in the Armenian parliament on Wednesday.
“Yesterday we witnessed disgraceful, insolent behavior in the National Assembly,” Vanetsyan told reporters on Thursday.
Pashinyan was enraged by opposition Hayastan bloc MP Hripsime Stambulyan’s claims about the “surrender of the 75 percent of Artsakh” to the enemy.
“Stop shedding crocodile tears here,” Pashinian said, angrily. “I’ll wave my finger to anyone who says I surrendered lands. I will also do other things if needed.”
Vanetsyan believes the language used by Pashinyan is unacceptable, calling it disgraceful behavior for absolutely everyone.
He cited several reasons for such behavior, including an “unbalanced state of mind” or Pashinyan’s inability to answer awkward questions addressed to him.
Vanetsyan says he has never taken part in a Q&A session with the government because he knows “there is an unbalanced person who says whatever he wants, and answers a question as he pleases.”
